Take Bus Line A47X from ASIAWORLD EXPO to TAI PO MARKET STATION and then walk about 170m to take Metro East Rail Line from Tai Po Market to Lo Wu Station. It takes about 1.5 hours and costs about HKD 57.

Is your itinerary Australia - Shenzhen - Hongkong? If yes, you are eligible for the 144-hour visa-free transit but you need to go to Hong Kong by ferry from Shekou port. However, this is more convenient than the 5-day visa on arrival and no visa fee is needed.

No, it is not possible if you don't have a China visa. However, you can apply for a 5-day Shenzhen visa on arrival at Luohu Port by subway.
